Great video again! When the Alfred runs its normal route it has a great cafe! Good morning rolls, chips (later in the day) and your sponsor will be happy, Costa Coffee 😂

Thanks for the comment! Great to know that hatch is used for Pentland Ferries service 😃 Other coffee brands are available 😜

Baffled how they couldnt have put a coffee machine on the Alfred at least! Even the small Loch Frisa ferry to Mull has one.

Yep me too, and a full vending machine - easy money!

The Alfred has the facilities, contract states not allowed to earn extra money. Company politics, I'm afraid.

@@ambasteir8316 thanks for this! That makes sense now, even though it’s a poor reason!

0:01 I went on the MV Isle of Arran ferry earlier this month and it was very very crowded 😮 Had food though and after spent most of the time outside enjoying the views. Saw Dolphins Had my timings changed so lost time over in beautiful Arran

It’s a lovely old ferry but too small for 2024 in every respect!

You were lucky it was sailing living in Troon they are not that reliable.Thanks to the useless SNP govt the new ferries are 6 years late,millions over budget and are a joke

Not a big fan of MV Alfred, but the crossing looks nice 😊 The classic is after my taste 😊 Anyway, I see I must visit these parts of Scotland sometime, looks amazing 😊

Although CalMac didn’t run out of Troon regularly prior to chartering the MV Alfred the SeaCat used to run from Troon to Belfast.

No cafe on the MV Alfred ? Well, that's a bit cr*p ! After all those minutes of regaling how lovely it is, and then out of the blue.... no cafe.
@craig.bryant
@craig.bryant 2 месяца назад
It is its major downside. For me, I only use the cafe or restaurant for 2 hours plus journeys usually!

ARRAN FERRIES MV Glen Sannox MV Glen Rosa ISLAY FERRIES MV Loch Indaal MV Isle of Islay WESTERN ISLES MV Claymore MV Lochmor Pioneer was one of the options in the vote but lost the vote because people preferred other names that fit in with the local area with the Lochs and Glens. People are not too keen on random names that have no relevance to the local area The new Islay ferries will compliment MV Finlaggan but replace MV Hebridean Isles The new western isles ferries will compliment MV Loch Seaforth but replace MV Lord of the Isles

@craig.bryant 2 месяца назад
I’d voted for Pioneer just for the old days! Thanks for the info!!

@Scottish_Transport_Explorer 2 месяца назад
The two Western ferries are both for the Uig triangle route replacing the MV Hebrides. But will not be replacing MV Lord of the Isles on the Lochboisdale to Mallaig/Oban route.
@craig.bryant
@craig.bryant 2 месяца назад
@@Scottish_Transport_Explorer yep that’s what I thought. There’s a LOTI replacement that’s bespoke in the works. Not sure where the MV Hebrides will move to, perhaps as a second vessel on Ullapool-Stornoway?!
@Scottish_Transport_Explorer
@Scottish_Transport_Explorer 2 месяца назад
@@craig.bryant Maybe yeah. They could replace the MV Isle of Mull with MV Hebrides on the Mull route as she is a younger vessel compared to the Isle of Mull by around 10 or 11 years. That or have her as a second vessel on the Arran route if the new ferries somehow ain't in service yet
